My Misadventures in Custom Content
Sooooo, I decided that I was going to get all fancy and make custom content. I already have Photoshop, and am relatively proficient at using it, so I figured how hard could it be? Then I ran into one major issue. The fact that I run OSX and not Windows. I haven't owned a Windows-based PC in about four years, and up to this point, I had been lucky in the sense that it hadn't prevented me from being able to do something. Until now. Because I hadn't ever really branched out into creating CC before, I was blissfully unaware that everything developed to insert custom content was made solely for Windows. Now I'm not going to sit here and whine about the notion that nobody has developed something that can be used on OSX. I understand, while there have been some major gains in the number of people running OSX, Windows is by far the most commonly used operating system in the world, and it makes absolutely perfect sense that what is being developed is using what is arguably the standard when it comes to operating systems. However, it was definitely an eye-opening situation. I hadn't thought too much into how much work goes into making CC, and this whole debacle makes me appreciate the creative people who are behind some of the amazing CC that has been uploaded. Of course, my attempt might have been complicated by the technical issues, and maybe it's not as difficult as it appears to be. Nevertheless, I am bowing out gracefully from the world of creating CC. At least until I can get past this technological roadblock! So for now, my creations will continue to be without any kind of CC, since I struck out on my attempt to create my own, and I respect the hard work of others entirely too much to add something that is not my own creation (or at least part of the software that I paid for).
And I also want to give a big thank you to those who have downloaded my lots so far. I have really enjoyed making them, and I hope that everyone who downloaded is enjoying using them in their game!
